Reincarnation

I Don't Wanna

Leaf yawned as she rubbed the sleep out of her eyes, as she got up she realized she had fallen asleep in the living room, she pressed her hooves into the cushion, Flurry heart had arrived the previous day and delivered her a Couch, and a food card with enough cash on it to cover Leaf's food bill for a year. Flurry was adamant that it was just a sign of friendship, but Leaf got the feeling that Flurry was on to her being Spike, or at the very least suspicious that something was off with her. Upon setting up the Red couch Leaf took the center Pillow out and replaced it with the Purple Cushion she had brought with her, giving the red cushion to Angel, who had was still trying to pick out a pet house as Leaf had just given him a pamphlet and told him he could have whatever he wanted from it.
Leaf picked up the Power Pony comic she had fallen asleep reading and placed it with the rest of her collection, she looked up at the collection of Power Pony figures she had gotten on the same birthday where Discord had found her, all she could do now, however, was frown. It had been bad enough when Autumn and Summer had let her leave without so much as a goodbye, but now that she knew they were also Applebloom and Scootaloo it just made her miss them even more. So Far Winter was the only one who had sent her any letters, now knowing she was Sweetie belle Leaf kind of wished Winter had been born gay, as Sweetie had been the only mare he had ever dated besides Starlight, ironically they cut it off when Sweetie realized she was a Lesbian and was just dating Spike because he had looked very feminine during his 3rd molt.
"Stupid universe," Leaf muttered "I lose Starlight, and now Sweetie isn't gay enough to be with me," Leaf muttered at the injustice of her love life "I should have dated Summer when I had the chance, but no, I had to be the good person I am and turn her away because she was literally just horny for my body, not for me as who I am," Leaf rubbed her face and let out a sigh. "Dammit, I'm lonely," Leaf groaned "And I have to wait another 3 years before I can get drunk," Leaf flopped back onto her couch. "Day off and I'm sitting around, being all sad because everyone I've ever loved either doesn't remember me or is gone!" Leaf flopped onto the floor and found a shadow covering her head, she looked at Angel and he just clucked at her.
"No," She said defiantly "I don't wanna start dating, I'll just outlive them and go through this again when they die," Angle clucked and Leaf blew air out of her mouth.
"I think the oldest Kirin was 612," She decided "But that chick was in a hospital bed for over two centuries, she only died because the life support system got too old and failed," Angel clucked and Leaf shook her head. "I don't wanna stop being pessimistic, I just wanna lie around, get fat, and die sad," Leaf rolled onto her back and waved her legs around dramatically "Take me now death," Angel clucked and Leaf blinked.
"Excuse you?" She demanded as she got to her hooves "I am not," Angel squinted and clucked, Leaf's face slowly went from defiant to guilty "I...I mean me and Starlight did it all the time," Angel shook his head and clucked "Alright fine, so maybe Starlight was the only creature I ever got it on with, so what? I have no shame about my lack of a sex life, I'm only 17," Angel looked at Leaf, raised his wings, and bucked, using his wings to make chopping motions. "Mentally I'm like 6,000, yes, but Sex is all Biology chicken, I'd expect you to know that seeing as you had like 20 children yourself,"
Angel clucked like mad and motioned around, Leaf laughed nervously as she tried to think about how to defend herself.
"I mean, I don't really know what Ponycity is like, what if I go out there and it sucks?" Angel shook his head, clucking his disappointment before nodding, and giving a simple cluck. "Don't you dare," Leaf said, Angel looked at her in defiance before running between her legs, Leaf turned on the spot and ended up falling, as she got back up Angel opened the door by jumping up to the lever and landed on it, the door clicked open and he slammed into it hard enough for it to slide open, he jumped and ran into the hallway just as Leaf slid out after him. Using her magic to shut the door as she ran after Angel, who was high tailing it to the staircase.
"Angel Chicken get back here," Leaf demanded angrily, as she ran Angel scared a foal and she dropped her toy as the chicken ran past, the arm of the figurine popped out and the foal let out a low wine, Leaf slid to a stop and without a word used her magic to pop the arm back into place and put her most powerful enchantment on it, being a Kirin her magical powers where very weak so the best she could do was make it dance for the child, who laughed with glee as her toy danced for her.
Leaf turned back to Angel and continued chasing, Her anger at being forced to leave her home ended up making her turn Nirik, it took her a second but as she ran she became aware of the fact that she was once again Pink. "What?" She demanded as she slowed down in confusion and looked at her body "Why?" Leaf shook her head, confident she had no control over her flames as she continued running after Angel.
Angel rushed down the stairs and Leaf continued running after him, in an attempt to grab him she jumped down the stairs and was introduced to the effect of her pink flames as she proceeded to jump so high she hit the ceiling and rolled down the stairs.
"Ow," Leaf complained as she rubbed her head, she looked at the Pink fire and then felt incredibly stupid. "Pinkie Pie," She realized "I'm channeling Pinkies recycled Magic," Leaf took a deep breath and forced herself to laugh, instantly her flames started glowing brighter, Leaf laughed a genuine laugh at figuring it out, and proceeded to lose the ability to control her bounce as her flames coated her hooves and bounce her up, rolling with her new found power Leaf gave chase to Angel and bounced forward, moving faster with each movement of her hooves against the floor, just as she was about to catch him he sidestepped and she hit the wall, instead of hurting she just felt her body compressing.
"Oh no," She said in realization before she shot back and began bouncing all around the first floor of the castle, causing a mild panic as she screamed out "I can't stop," No longer enjoying herself and being in a room without laugher Leaf turned green and she smiled for a second before seeing the incoming wall, she braced her self for the painful face plant but after a moment of no collision she opened her eyes and found herself enveloped in blue magic just in front of the wall.
"Oh sweet Celestia," Leaf said as her fears burned out her fire "That could have ended really badly," Leaf was set down, and then turned 180 degrees to face who had caught her, a Tall white Unicorn mare with a flowing Golden Mane looked down at her in judgment. "Wow," Leaf said at the look on the mare's face "That is an impressive amount of anger to store in one place,"
"Name," The Mare demanded simply.
"Leaf Storm?" Leaf offered.
"Oh really?" The mare asked the disbelief somewhat offending Leaf storm.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Leaf demanded "Yeah I get it's weird my parents named me after a Leaf what with the blue mane, pale whitish fur, and red horn, but I have Green eyes, and my scally bits are green too, so the name works on some level,"
"Well, no offense but you're far from the first creature to claim to be Discords supposed assistant to try and get away with a prank,"
"First of all that wasn't a prank, it was an example of why you don't practice new magic indoors. Second who around here has been using my name in vain? No assistant worth their ass would ever get caught pulling the prank," Leaf Scoffed "Amatures," The Mare pointed to herself and said simply.
"I am Sunflower Glaze," She said simply "Captain of the Royal Guard, and I don't tolerate this kind of behavior in my castle,"
"Pretty sure this is Twilight's Castle,"
"Well then, Miss Assistant to Chaos, how about we go Pay the Princess a Visit and see if she confirms your identity or not,"
"Well, why don't we?" Leaf demanded back before adding "But before we do that can you grab my Chicken?" Leaf pointed to Angel who jumped at being called out and attempted to run for it, only to be grabbed in Sunflower's magic.
"This one I presume?" She questioned.
"You!" Leaf said grabbing Angel "This is your fault, you're lucky I like you, or I'd take away your cushion," Sunflower just shook her head and carried them to the staircase.
"Well you certainly seem like the kind of creature Discord would employ,"
"The hells that suppose to mean?" Leaf demanded as Angel continued to attempt an escape.
